Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Madrid to Phnom Penh

Driving costs include food, lodging, and fuel for one person. Like we said earlier, the cost to ship a car is almost always higher than the cost of driving that car the same distance. Even when you factor in additional costs like hotels, gas, and food, driving is still cheaper.

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.

Shipping a car by plane is extremely expensive, costing anywhere from $2,000 to over $20,000 domestically and $30,000 to $100,000+ internationally, depending on distance, vehicle size, and urgency, making it typically 5-10 times pricier than ground transport, reserved for high-value or time-critical situations.
